I would try the Dragonfruit with Grey goose vodka & little bit of simple syrup. Then thinly slice some strawberries to add to the drink. Yum!

Cranberry Grapefruit will make a very refreshing addition to any summer martini.

Here’s a recipe for a fabulous Grapefruit Martini:

4 parts Vodka (Absolut Ruby Red will give it a hint of grapefruit)
2 parts Cointreau
1 part Cranberry Juice
1 part Lime Juice
1 part Cranberry Grapefruit
*(for parties, you could also add frozen cranberries to the drink to keep it cold and fashionable)

Shake, stir, sip, and enjoy!

I think your contest end date is incorrect… I think you meant May 31st and not March 31st? :)

Those flavours sound divine. Here’s a recipe I just came up with:

The “Carrie”
- 1oz lychee juice
- 2oz Hansen’s Dragonfruit
- 1oz raspberry vodka
- put in a blender with ice
- crush and serve in martini glass!
